    Trauma and PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder)

    Trauma creates havoc to our mental well-being. Approximately 1 in 11 people will be diagnosed with PTSD in their lifetime. Studies have shown that Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy can greatly reduce symptoms of trauma (flashbacks, nightmares, depression, avoidance) and help people regain control of their lives.

    Anxiety

    Extreme anxiety can paralize and debilitate. Almost 1/3 of all American adults will experience an anxiety disorder in their lifetime. This includes generalized anxiety, social anxiety, and panic attacks. Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy has been shown to greatly reduce anxiety and improve quality of life.

  • Scattered black and gray letter cutouts on a white background with the letters 'OCD' prominent in the center.

    OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder)

    OCD is when a person has unwanted thoughts (obsessions), as well as uncontrollable urges to stop the thoughts (compulsions). People with OCD may spend their entire day obsessing about something and/or engaging in compulsive behaviors. When medications and cognitive behavioral therapy are no longer working, Ketamine may provide quick relief from OCD symptoms.

    Pain

    Several conditions, including cancer, fibromyalgia, neuropathic pain, phantom pain, postherpetic neuralgia, sickle cell disease, and spinal injury, may result in chronic pain. Ketamine has been used to manage pain in all of these conditions. For those struggling with both psychological and physical pain, Ketamine may be a treatment that improves both.
